Mia's Bathhouse For Pets

A small neighborhood boutique south of Washington Heights has carved out a quiet niche in Mia's Bathhouse For Pets, the only stand-alone pet grooming spot on 145th Street. They take walk-ins when slots free up and run flea and tick baths for dogs and cats daily. Hand stripping for terriers, sanitary trims around eyes and paws, and creative breed-specific styling follow standard sessions. Specialty add-ons include blueberry facials for sensitive skin and paw balm massages after every bath. Puppy socialization tubs introduce young dogs to the routine ahead of formal grooming schedules. Evening appointments reduce midday dashes through the neighborhood’s busiest blocks.

The two-block stretch from Amsterdam to Broadway keeps a steady rhythm; park on the side streets before you head inside. Add contact info once near the end: call (212) 694-8606.

Oddly enough, the sidewalks stay quieter after 6 p.m.
